'Afraid' in the Bible

So the commander of the Temple guards went with his men to bring them back without force, because they were afraid of being stoned to death by the people.

When Saul arrived in Jerusalem, he tried to join the disciples, but they all were afraid of him because they wouldn't believe he was a disciple.

The guards reported these words to the magistrates, and they became afraid when they heard that Paul and Silas were Roman citizens.

One night, the Lord told Paul in a vision, "Stop being afraid to speak out! Don't remain silent!

Paul said, "But I was born a citizen." Immediately those who were about to examine him stepped back, and the tribune was afraid when he found out that Paul was a Roman citizen and that he had tied him up.

The quarrel was becoming violent, and the tribune was afraid that they would tear Paul to pieces. So he ordered the soldiers to go down, take him away from them by force, and bring him into the barracks.

As Paul talked about righteousness, self-control, and the coming judgment, Felix became afraid and said, "For the present you may go. When I get a chance, I will send for you again."

and said, "Stop being afraid, Paul! You must stand before the emperor. Indeed, God has given to you the lives of everyone who is sailing with you.'
